Subject: That Mr. Medicus is a bit of a perv..
Let¡¯s go!
We start off back in the Bowery where we left off, and a great stage show. This looks be a ¡®theater in the round¡¯ show, and it ... features dancing girls, a wrestling match between an older guy and a midget (!!), A fat girl chorus line (!!!), a hot hootchie-kootchie number that the ¡°cops¡± have to break up, some acrobats, and can can dancers.. We then jump to more fair exhibits.. The NCR giant cash register is shown!! Then we go off again.. I have a feeling we haven¡¯t seen the last of this amazing sculpture yet. From there, we go to ¡®Jack Sheridan¡¯s Magazine Covers¡¯.. Again, who is that? No idea. Well, here¡¯s where the real hootchie-koo starts, these are uh topless models, posing as magazine covers! Sound weird? Well yeah, you¡¯re right. Very odd.. Not too sure what the purpose of that was¡¦ Liked the model in the outside in the dressing gown though.. Actual artistry is then celebrated in the ¡®Artist¡¯s Village¡¯.. After that we get another ride, called the Silver Streak, which looks a LOT like the ride.. now I can¡¯t remember what it¡¯s called.. you know, the one where you do nothing but go around in a circle, while the dj cries, ¡°Do you want to go FASTER?¡± from there, we have a curious ride, one ride I guesss that predates a viewing tower (Like the seattle needle in their fair). This think looks like a crane with two cages on either side of it, one goes up, the other one goes down. The Medicuses go up, and he takes some grand aerial shots.. mind you, they¡¯re through a cage.. There seems to be a mountain of some sort, and a few rides.. wonder if we¡¯ll explore them later¡¦ We then go to Frank Buck¡¯s Bring Em Back Alive show, section. Frank Buck is a guy who explored Africa. So of course, we have ¡°African¡± men playing tribal drums (who were probably hired in Jersey), someone on an elephant., A monkey show, Medicus then focuses on two black girls in the audience, just by coincidence of course. Then he gets bored and starts, yes, photographing women¡¯s backsides. Why? Who knows. We then go back to that mountain I was telling you about earlier. It¡¯s a giant Rhebus monkey display!! Nice little display here, but unfortunately, it seems that the monkeys are eating a lot of things the crowd is feeding them. So their chewing on empty boxes and also curiously lugging balloons.. Camel rides are also given around the area, which Mr. Medicus cannot pass up on. After that, we take a quick glance at the ¡®Nature¡¯s Mistakes¡¯ pavilion, a look at the water-bugs (read bumper-boats) ride, and then we wind up at Chester Hale¡¯s Extasie. Man, I have no idea why so many of these pavilions started with prople¡¯s names for. Anyways, this is yet ANOTHER burlesque show, and this one Medicus goes into. And this goes all out, with uh, a full frontal nudity Salome (ok, with pasties), and then, to conclude this episode, we have a rather boring fireworks display. But nevertheless! This all is a MUST SEE on this site!
